Jeremiah 49:13 in Context — Jeremiah 49
11 Laisse tes orphelins, je les ferai vivre, Et que tes veuves se confient en moi!
12 Car ainsi parle l’Éternel: Voici, ceux qui ne devaient pas boire la coupe la boiront; Et toi, tu resterais impuni! Tu ne resteras pas impuni, Tu la boiras.
13 Car je le jure par moi-même, dit l’Éternel, Botsra sera un objet de désolation, d’opprobre, De dévastation et de malédiction, Et toutes ses villes deviendront des ruines éternelles.
14 J’ai appris de l’Éternel une nouvelle, Et un messager a été envoyé parmi les nations: Assemblez-vous, et marchez contre elle! Levez-vous pour la guerre!
15 Car voici, je te rendrai petit parmi les nations, Méprisé parmi les hommes.
